Abstract

Dynamical breaking of the electroweak theory, i.e. technicolor, is an intriguing extension of the Standard Model. Recently new models have been proposed featuring walking dynamics for a very low number of techniflavors. These technicolor extensions are not ruled out by current precision measurements. Here I first motivate the idea of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking and then summarize some of the properties of the recent models and their possible cosmological implications.

I am delighted to thank D.D. Dietrich, N. Evans, S.B. Gudnason, D.K. Hong, S.D. Hsu, C. Kouvaris, and K. Tuominen for having shared the work and fun on which this brief summary is based. I am indebted to T. Appelquist for introducing me to this fascinating subject and M. Shifman for getting me interested in the problem of hig!J.er dimensional representations. Many scientists have contributed to this subject and deserve to be cited. I hence refer to the beautiful review of Hill and Simmons,"Strong dynamics and electroweak symmetry breaking," Phys. Rept. 381, 235 (2003) [Erratum-JETP. 390, 553 (2004)] for a complete list of relevant references and a better description of some key features of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. I am supported by the Marie Curie Excellence Grant as team leader under contract MEXT-CT-2004-013510 and by the Danish Research Agency.
